Daily Prayer Guide

A daily devotional discipline designed to revolutionize the lives of a million Christians and 2.6 billion hidden people!

Why a Daily Prayer Guide?

"Nothing that does not occur daily will ever dominate your life!"

That's a basic fact of human nature.

Now, with the Daily Prayer Guide, you can take a few minutes each day to walk through the world. This unique prayer guide will focus your mind and heart on thousands of "hidden" nations cut off from Christian outreach the Gospel's final frontiers. Every day, you'll discover surprises that will gradually and surely transform your entire outlook on God's world today.

From Where did this Daily Devotional Idea Come?

The Daily Prayer Guide is a part of a revolutionary plan for mission support which came from the Lushai Christians of Northwest Burma. They heard of the Dai people to the north, a mountain people without the Gospel. Determining to go as missionaries, Lushais needed prayer and financial support. So, they developed a plan.

As they prepare each meal, they set aside a handful of rice, using this simple act as a reminder to pray for their missionaries. These small handfuls, pooled together and sold by the church once a month, raise an astonishing amount of support for Christian outreach.

In the American version of this Burmese plan, Christians save their loose change in a jar each day for new work among Hidden Peoples. As they do, they remember to pray, using the Daily Prayer Guide.

How Does the Daily Prayer Guide Work?

The Daily Prayer Guide will encourage you to:

Pursue God's heart for all nations as you read of His redemptive plan revealed throughout the Old and New Testaments;

Praise God for what he has done through men and women who have faithfully made His Commission the priority of their lives;

Plead with God for the hidden peoples as you get a glimpse of cultures still untouched by the Gospel;

Petition for promising breakthroughs just on the horizon as mission organizations move out to penetrate new frontiers;

Pray for the church's obedience and for your own obedience as you strive to make God's redemptive passion your own.
